- Remove main_cycling.py, main_multi.py, main_release.py (single main.py is canonical)
- Update setup.sh to read SERVICE_NAME and PORT from .env
- Update env.example with SERVICE_NAME and PORT for multi-instance support
- Fix server-csi to try rpicam-still before libcamera-still (Debian Trixie)
Deploy pattern: clone repo twice, configure each .env, run setup.sh
Each instance gets its own systemd service and install directory.
- main_release.py (v3.1.0): Release camera after each snapshot for V4L2 compatibility
- main_cycling.py (v3.2.0): Single motion thread cycles between cameras (1s interval)
- mcp/vision_mcp.py: Support custom snapshot_path for multi-camera servers
Fixes Pi 3 dual-camera V4L2 conflicts by not holding cameras open.
- main_multi.py: Multi USB camera support with ID-based endpoints
- Config via CAMERAS env: '{"basement": 0, "basement2": 1}'
- Endpoints: /snapshot (default), /snapshot/{cam_id}
- server-csi/: New server for Pi CSI ribbon cameras (IR support)
- Auto-detects picamera2/picamera/libcamera-still
- IR_MODE and ROTATION settings
- Includes setup.sh for easy Pi deployment
